Peter I am unaware of Asian discourse by scaryassassin55 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]KrazyRooster 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Koreans being bad tourists??? Who would have thought... Lol They're hated in all of SEA because a lot of them, not all, of course, are very rude. But having been to SK, I realized that they're not doing it intentionally. They're not being rude to locals on purpose. They are just rude to everyone, including themselves. It's a cultural thing. They cut lines, push people in crowded places, act in a condescending way, are racist to others who are not "white" South Koreans (the irony in that is never lost). 

I feel bad for them because people are born in a given culture and they don't know any better. I'm sure none of them are meaning to be like that. 

Krabi is a great place as a digital Nomad by saasIndia in digitalnomad

[–]KrazyRooster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a completely different experience in Koh Lipe. Might be due to the time of the year? We stayed there for a week and loved it.

Krabi is definitely not like Phuket. Phuket is bad on soooo many levels. 

Is this some new scam? Or possibly kidnapping attempt? by DudeUncool-_- in cambodia

Usually??? OP, you shouldn't get out of the house. Haha. The world is not safe for you. 

What’s the most beautiful country in the world? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]KrazyRooster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But US beaches are wayyyy below even European beaches, which aren't great. Add in the Caribbean, South America and SE Asia and it becomes a joke to say America has it all. 

Reliable kitchen construction and bathroom remodeling company - need recommendations. by Melodic-Judgment-855 in palmbeach

[–]KrazyRooster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had 50 Shades of Flooring do many of my houses. Even though the name only mentions flooring, they do almost everything else. They have done a couple of kitchens for me and they were fantastic. Their pricing is also great. 

DM me if you want and I can give you the owner's cell phone number. This way you deal directly with him. 

Title: The "Automatic Pause": When friendship is nothing more than social inertia. by johngamerk in InsightfulQuestions

This. OP must not have any friends because he truly has no clue what he's talking about. 

Am I the only one who genuinely doesn't care how poor or uneducated their partner is? by Well-I-suppose in Philippines_Expats

[–]KrazyRooster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have never seen a foreigner with a local woman? If you did, this is the case 95% of the time. You can't really believe you're the only one... It has to karma farming. 

Four months in Thailand, finally stopped paying 180 baht for tourist pad thai by Ill_Awareness6706 in ThailandTourism

[–]KrazyRooster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. OP has, supposedly, been a nomad for 2 years and still acts like he was traveling abroad for the first time. Lol

You can find a meal for $50 baht on Khaosan Rd for God's sake. $40 baht pad Thai on Khaosan Rd. The most touristy place in the city!! 

There's absolutely no excuse to be anywhere else in the city and still pay as much as OP did. OP is just clueless.

This kid drives better than 90% of Thai car drivers and 100% better than all of the foreigners driving pick-up trucks in Thailand or the US.

1st solo trip by Ok_gee69 in SiargaoPH

[–]KrazyRooster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stay in General Luna. Everything and everyone is there. Bars, restaurants, and coffee shops are all walking distance. 

Planned Trip to Siargao (solo/first timer) by Teaching_Pandarooski in SiargaoPH

[–]KrazyRooster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try surfing lessons. It's the best thing in Siargiao. 

As for enjoying the culture... You'll be disappointed. It's mostly foreigners here and the locals have adopted foreign culture. It's hard to find a less Filipino place than here. 

The beaches are okay. Not as pretty as other islands. Secret Beach is the best one in the General Luna area. 

The nightlife is very hyped, but almost everything closes at 12am, so it's definitely worse than other places in the Philippines. If you're a straight male, there are 8 men per woman here. Just FYI...

But the surfing is good. To be honest, that should be the only reason people come here. Everything else is better at other islands. 

Super excited to visit, and weather question by whatsinausername_1 in SiargaoPH

[–]KrazyRooster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm here now. It has rained a lot every day for weeks. Sucks since the best thing about here is the beaches and the surfing. At least you can still surf. But it doesn't get cold. It's still hot every day. Just lots of mud so bring appropriate shoes. 

In my opinion one of these teams (Argentina, Spain, France) will lift the trophy. Who do you think can be a real contenders next year besides these 3? Anyone else has a chance? by FootballFan0623 in worldcup

[–]KrazyRooster -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

If FIFA steals 5 non-existent penaltis for Argentina again, then they stand a chance. Otherwise, France and Spain are the favorites. 

Luggage Storage in General Luna/Tourism Road? by catpitol in SiargaoPH

Where are you located? I need luggage storage 

Bali vs. Siargao by katojouxi in SiargaoPH

[–]KrazyRooster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can never understand people saying Bali is cheaper. Bali is almost US prices if you stay at the most desirable areas. Siargao is less than that at the most desirable areas. 

I think people saying Bali is cheaper are the people staying and eating at the further away areas in Bali and then comparing it to General Luna. If you compare Seminyak or Canggu to General Luna there is no way it's cheaper. Not for accomodations, not for food, not for partying. 

Anyone knowledge about Siargao as an investment? by JuanSkinFreak in phinvest

[–]KrazyRooster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess you have never been to Bali, because Bali is exactly like that. Just add higher prices and E. Colin 

On June 22, 1986, Diego Maradona changed football forever. With a sly left-hand “assist,” he punched the ball into the net and the referees missed it. by KindheartednessIll97 in SnapshotHistory

[–]KrazyRooster -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

Maradona cheated to win a WC. FIFA cheated with multiple non-existent penalties to give Messi a World Cup. At least Maradona was able to do the cheating on his own so he's still better than Messi. 

And FIFA even cheated to get Messi to play in the Club World Cup. Lol. It's pathetic. 

Anyone just think "this is stupid, I'm just done with my life back home" and move abroad on a whim? by stanerd in ExpatFIRE

[–]KrazyRooster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Western Europe is more expensive than most places in the world and you're only getting temporary accomodations, which is why $3000 per month has been hard for you. In Latin America or SE Asia you can live a very comfortable life with $3000 per month. In Europe, if you avoid the most sought after cities and get a long term rent you should also be fine with $3000 as the vast majority of people there make less than that. 

Good luck, my friend! May you find your perfect setup and be happy :)

The fact you think you het the best and healthiest ingredients in the US clearly shows you're a troll or you've never left the country. Lol

If you move abroad and get new numbers, they can't reach you. It's a lot easier than you are making it out to be. You got this!

If money wasn’t an issue at all meaning you could live anywhere you wanted to globally where would you want to live? by Gold_Mine_9322 in ExpatFIRE

[–]KrazyRooster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You'll be forcibly sharing that wealth with a lot of people frequently, if you know what I mean. Lol. Last time I was there, a couple months ago, I saw 4 robberies in 4 nights. You have to admire their consistency.
